This study aimed to evaluate the biomechanical properties in vitro and the bone
regeneration of whitlockite (WH) compared with hydroxyapatite (HA) or β-tricalcium …

Purpose Treatment of bone defects commonly employs bone substitutes, like hydroxyapatite
(HAP) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) for promoting bone regeneration. However, both …

Background Bone substrates like hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate have been
widely used for promoting spinal fusion and reducing the complications caused by autograft …

Whitlockite (WH) is the second most abundant inorganic component of human bone,
accounting for approximately 25% of bone tissue. This study investigated the role of WH in …

Background: Due to the increasing aging of society, the number of patients suffering from
senile diseases is increasing. Patients suffering from osteoporosis, which is a representative …

Biomaterials that meet the requirements to stimulate bone tissue formation play a vital role in
orthopedics and dentistry. In this work, chitosan and a biphasic, non-cytotoxic material …

Whitlockite (WH; Ca18Mg2 (HPO4) 2 (PO4) 12) is a calcium phosphate based ceramic that
contains magnesium ions. As the second most abundant mineral in living bone, WH …

Native bone tissue can be formed by developing collagen fibrils coated with hydroxyapatite
(HA) and whitlockite (WH) nanoparticles after mineralization. WH has attracted much …

In this study, we developed a simple approach for the controllable growth of whitlockite (WH)
on a β-tricalcium phosphate surface and investigated its cell viability via CCK-8, its live-dead …

In order to provide favorable conditions for bone regeneration, a lot of biomaterials have
been developed and evaluated, worldwide. Composite biomaterials have gained notoriety …
